Twilight Plasters (Click post title to view images, etc)
No, these plasters (band-aids) aren’t concept pictures. They’re not made up. These are totally, terrifyingly, 100% real. Came across these while shopping in Manchester last weekend. Was reminded of them today.
I don’t even know where to start. No really, I can’t, I just…nothing even comes close to…words escape me.
It does make you wonder what might be next:
Who's for Twilight Toilet Roll?
Or how about Twilight sanitary towels, maybe?
Oh, the possibilities! Doesn’t bare thinking about, really.
Still, all the fangirls would probably go apeshit over the towels, especially if his face was on the pads….EW More >
Vampyr Snyper is 10!
Mar 12th
Vampyr Snyper, it’s your birthday! Happy birthday, Vampyr Snyper!
Yes, it was 10 years ago to the day that I first put pen to paper (and in 2000, it was actually pen to paper; I didn’t have my own computer back then…God knows how I survived) and wrote what is now The Genesis.
If it were a child, little VS would be outside eating worms by now, or rather – more apt to the times – mugging old ladies and stealing cars.
Here’s to hoping the other books are finished (or at least just one of the others is finished) before its 20th!
More >It's STILL Progressing
Mar 11th
So I’m kind of running out of things to say about this whole Divided They Fall first draft business. Yes, it’s still going on. Yesterday, I wrote almost 1,000 words without even really thinking about it. You would expect me to be happy about this, wouldn’t you? Well, I’m not. Not overly, anyway. For some reason, I think if I’m not permanently struggling with every word I am trying to write, something must be wrong with it.
Only time will tell on that one, I suppose. I’ve been thinking about this book since, oh, around 2005, so it’s fair to assume that More >
The Death of Corey Haim
Mar 10th
I don’t usually pipe up about celebrity deaths (or celebrity anything, for that matter). As much as I watch (and–for some–admire) these people, alas I don’t know them, nor do I know anyone who has ever even been in the same room with them. And without actually having ever known these people, it’s not really my place to say anything, is it?
I didn’t pass comment or judgement when the world lost Heath Ledger, Brittany Murphy (she would have made a fabulous McKenzie) or even the monolith presence that was Michael Jackson. Probably though, looking at it from a purely subjective More >

Quirky Isn't The Word
Feb 28th
Plenty of people claim that their technology is a little “weird”, that they have to give their machines a bit of a kick before they’ll actually do anything. But I think I’m a winner when it comes to oddities about the tech I rely on to produce…well, anything, really.
A few years ago, I decided that a PC wasn’t doing what I wanted. I actually suspect (and blame) Scrivener had a large part of my decision to finally invest in a Mac. Plus one of my student friends had a Mac, and it was an all-singing, all-dancing, display of everything I More >
And Then There Were Two
Feb 25th
I said I would be sad enough to tidy Fox (Second Life version, that is) up, and look! I have (Clicky clicky for biggie…biggie…). What depresses me the most is not the time and energy I could have put into writing that I have spent creating this avatar; it’s the fact that now I have both of them in-world, I want to find ways to make some scenes for them, to build the entire city, to make every other character and tell the Vampyr Snyper: Second Life story! Now that’s sad.
And just in case you were thinking all I’ve been doing is More >
Way Over Target (with a bit of a cheat)
Feb 19th
Well, OK, a lot of a cheat, but hey, you’re grown ups, you’ll get over it.
So here’s is tonight’s word count. However, around 2,100 of these words have been tactfully plucked from the original Divided They Fall draft, so yeah, technically, a complete cheat.
Meh.
Sure That's Fox, Hur Hur Hur
Feb 14th
I don’t think those of you who don’t “play” Second Life will really appreciate how much time and effort I put into making the Catrina avatar (those of you who do SL it up, this is just to make you smile). So, for you, here is a comparison between Catrina and the Fox avatar I attempted to make when I first started on the Second Life grid.
I made it super-small on purpose; just seeing it make me want to poke things into my eyes, but if you really want to, click on the pic to enlarge.
He’s pretty, right?
The saddest part More >
Progress!
Feb 13th
I had wholly intended today to be a completely writing-based day. And then I remembered my recently acquired Disney film collection. I figured I could just watch one before getting into some serious creative kung fu.
So I watched Disney/Pixar’s UP, cried like a baby, and and put on another one and then another and another.
Managed to catch up on some old classics as well as the newer ones. Sleeping Beauty; all hail Maleficent, Mistress of all Evil (not to be confused with Elvira, Mistress of the Dark…who is also amazing, but for totally different reasons). Monsters Inc; Boo, too cute More >
